Mrs Agboola emphasised the importance of nurturing young talent, saying, “All the clubs are expected to arrive on the opening day, and it’s going to be a full-day event. There are many talents abound in volleyball, and it’s crucial we start with them from a very young age, hence the U-15. It’s going to be for both boys and girls, and hopefully, the federation can identify some future stars.”

The competition promises to be an exciting showcasing of young volleyball talent, providing a platform for future stars to emerge.
